Anyone have the cure for this white powdering stuff on my dieffenbachia? Can’t get rid of it. Tried spraying neem oil on it multiple times.

looks like mealy bugs, clean them off with paper towel and spray with insecticidal soap once a week until the problem is gone

I recommend one tablespoon of dish soap in a big spray bottle! Drench the leaves and stems and even spray the soil! Then wipe with a towel! While it’s drying keep out of the sun to avoid the leaves burning and make sure to keep this plant away from other plants. Good idea to treat all the others just to be safe
